I am a doctor, I have poor knowledge in the field of programming. There is an idea to create a medical startup, but a person with knowledge of programming is needed. Where can you find like-minded people who are ready to work for free for the first time before looking for investors and grants?
Interested in specialists in the field of BigData.
Preferably a programmer from Kazan
The idea of a web application for all platforms, but with an emphasis on mobile. Disease prevention program.

Try to apply with such an initiative to a local university that trains IT specialists. Talk to the teachers / leadership of some department, tell them about the idea. I think they could help with the selection of student activists, launch a project within the department and provide any support, including in choosing a grant, applying for it.
As an example, group project-based learning is practiced at TUSUR - students unite in small teams of up to 7 people and, under the guidance of graduate students / associate professors / professors, do some projects. Projects are different, since I am a programmer, mostly software projects are around me. Yes, not everyone shoots and something comes out of them. But some survive to a business incubator with subsequent growth to a real working business.
By the way, it seems that some new IT-university has recently opened in Kazan, its advertising was actively moving everywhere.

Your chances of finding a colleague will increase many times over if you are not afraid to share your idea or at least a brief description.

As someone who has worked in a medical startup, I confirm that it is very, very difficult to take off in this market. If you want, let's discuss your idea.

Among friends and good acquaintances. Also ask your medical colleagues - maybe they have suitable people in their acquaintances. Another option is to go to start-up IT parties and infect people with your idea there.
